Edward James London - Balham

This salon is always a joy to visit. Jessica was brilliant, taking time to discuss what I wanted and I was very happy with the results. The head massage at the beginning and the massage chairs during the hair wash are wonderful, and add to the overall feeling of a great visit.

So good. I’m really pleased with my tape extensions. The colour match is spot on and they look natural. I was really unhappy with my thin hair so this is a game changer for me.

Lovely stylist, great advice and great colour - felt younger leaving the salon!

Won’t let anyone else touch my hair! Deren is amazing and the colour is always perfect

Rare to have someone listen this carefully and take the time that Jamie did to create the style I’d hoped for - will definitely return!

Very professional colour and style
Happy costumer

Dedicated to her professional

I usually go to Putney, but as I’ve moved I switched to Balham. However, I felt the environment is less over stimulating at Putney, Balham’s is probably nicer but I’m neurodivergent and I felt it was a bit loud, people and music (I go for a calming experience which it wasn’t) and bright for me at Balham, that’s probably a me problem, but I think I’ll go to Putney again next time. I won’t swap hairdressers as I love the work that Dalis does, she’s amazing and very friendly. Overall I liked the work that was done though! :)

Very happy with my haircut, exactly what I wanted. Shannon is friendly, professional, and highly recommended.

After 15 years with another salon I have had 3 haircuts by Gitanns and they hsve all been excellent. I have thick hair and Gitanns cuts it well. It’s a very welcoming and relaxing environment.

Jamie was amazing! Impeccable service from start to finish! Love my new look! Also as first time mum, I had to bring my baby in and Jamie was incredibly kind and patient.

Pedro is always such a bundle of joy, not only is a superb hairdresser he’s just highly entertaining:)

Best colour/cut and style ever!

Such a lovely salon experience.

Aaron was amazing. Did an amazing job with my hair cut in the style I wanted. Provided me great suggestions to make the style work for my hair length and thickness.

I enjoyed an appointment with Ed who always makes you feel a million dollars. The head, neck and shoulder massage before the actual wash and cut was so relaxing and the staff lovely. Thank you as always for making getting my hair done a a luxurious and relaxing experience

Would highly recommend Becca and this salon. She listened carefully to my ideas, gave me good advice and a great new, shorter haircut.

She knows exactly how to do my hair to lighten it naturally. The salon is gorgeous

Yet another visit to the wonderful Edward James salon to see the exceptionally talented Dalis. Thank you for making me feel like me again- you’re the best!

Lovely job as usual. Very friendly staff and nice ambience.

The colourist’s name was Shanon . She is not on the list for a choice. I was wondering why? She was excellent. I will have to choose a name of the list which is not correct it was Shannon who coloured my hair. Unless I choose from the list the review won’t reach you.

I am so grateful for Jamie’s work. It was such a great introduction to the salon. The whole experience was such a delight and really made me enjoy the getting my hair highlighted again after some bad experiences. I will absolutely be returning and asking for Jamie.

Great cut and blow dry from Aaron, really
happy with it - and great advice on future colour treatment.

Aaron is a great stylist. He's attentive and friendly and made me feel really comfortable.

Jess is just amazing! She helped me through the process of getting my hair cut a lot shorter, she is just so professional and I LOVE my new hairstyle!
Going to Edward James salon in Balham is just fabulous, calm and fun! Lovely team and Jamie as always gives the best back massage!!💆‍♀️

Great stylists. Never had a bad hair style in the years I have been coming to Edward james

Exceptional thought, talent and skill went into my colour … came away on top of the world. Thank you Ed! Can’t recommend you too highly. R

The best neck and head massage followed by fabulous Jess sound my hair colour

Once again I had a good experience at this salon. This time it was just for roots and a trim and I was very pleased with the result.

Loved my hair colour and blow dry as always, she is the best.

Perfect thank you

I have had the same hairdresser for over 8 years and am very picky with how my hair is coloured and cut. Due to my hairdresser moving, I tried Aaron at Edward James in Balham and am so happy with his care and attention to detail. He spent time to understand what I wanted and explained why some options might not give the desired outcome. Love my new hair, thank you so much.

Thank you Aaron for a great cut and blow dry - was lovely meeting you!

My visit with Dalis was excellent, as always! Dalis is friendly, professional and excellent at her job. First time meeting Aaron, he's a breath of fresh air. Overall a lovely morning.
Oh and a great cuppa!

I had a my hair coloured in preparation for my so son’s wedding later in the week. I had full set of highlights/lowlights, toner and conditioning treatment. The result was perfect. Jess is always a pleasure to be with and did a super job.

Emily did a great job on my hair for my son’s wedding. I had limited time as had a long drive to the venue so she worked quickly and calmly. I left feeling good and happy with my hair.

This was the first time Aaron styled my hair and he did an amazing blow dry!! I’ll definitely be back to see him again

An an-round excellent experience. I had explained to Dalis that I had a deadline and she made sure that the timing worked for me while still ensuring her usual high level of service. I was out ahead of the deadline and I qm super-hapoy with my colour. In fact, an acquaintance admired it and asked where I got my colour done so I recommended the salon and the stylist.

I asked Aaron for a change in my colour. The balayage and final colour was perfect just what I wanted. Great cut and style as well. Thank you

Long time happy client

Fab colour, lovely ambience and positivity in the salon. Excellent stress relief massage when I arrived also.

Always a lovely experience coming to have my hair done at Edward James. I always feel welcome and pampered, with drinks on tap and massages when you arrive. Deren does a great colour and cut. It’s dog friendly too, which is a huge plus. Would highly recommend!

Always a great experience, very relaxing and great highlights !

This was my first cut with Becca and I couldn’t have been more pleased with the result. She was really attentive to what I asked for -low maintenance and lots of movement - as well as being super friendly ( even though i was her last customer in n a busy Saturday!). Thoroughly recommend.

Emily is fab - the best there by a long shot!! But the salon itself seems to have lost its buzz and the prices have gone up so much in short period of time, you can go somewhere better in the city for less!

Good colour and good blow

Amazing cut and blowdry with Gitanna! This is the second time she has cut my hair and I love it, best cut in a long time. Also super friendly too! Overall lovely experience

I have been seeing Jess for my cut and colour for the last few years. As always, the appointment was lovely. Jess is so attentive and always nails the brief!

I had an excellent experience yesterday- the head massage and massage chairs contribute to the overall experience in the salon. The main reason for my visit yesterday was for my roots to be covered up and for a haircut- Jessica was great at listening to what I wanted and gave good advice. I love my new look.
